Sid and the Peanut Prank

Found this cool article on Sidney Crosby posted over at Puck Daddy. Features some pretty interesting stories we've never heard before: pulling pranks on coaches, helping teammates after practice, and even bringing breakfast for fans while he was in junior.

Crosby's the man. I don't think you can even justify the Ovi Crosby comparisons anymore, Crosby has beat Ovi almost always whenever they face head to head on the big stage, stanley cup playoffs, olympic gold, world jr championships, rocket richard trophy, i think the difference is ovi plays merely for his own success, while crosby plays for his team. Either way, i love when they matchup, one of the most exciting play off series was pitts vs washington.

Used to always be Crosby vs Ovechkin vs Malkin... Stamkos is now talked about more than malkin for sure... If Stamkos puts up even stronger numbers than last year, I think he has to be considered the best in today's NHL

I don't think you can compare Stamkos to Crosby tho, yeah he scores alot of one timer shots but is his game level and skill near the elite level of crosby or ovi? You gotta wonder when teams will shut down that one timer on the pp, it's almost worth the risk to just lay a man on him the whole pp since no one else scores on it!

It seems to pretty much come down to people not liking Ovy cuz he's not Canadian. Whatever though, the fact is their both great hockey players. To say "Ovy doesn't care about anything but his own success" is ludicrous. The guy plays every game to win, look at his efforts night in, night out. Hitting, scoring, playmaking. He's a beast. That's not to say Crosby isn't, just feels like 8 the Great isn't getting any love here right now. :P
